Arsenal Hit by Merino Injury Blow Ahead of Crystal Palace Clash
Merino To Miss Crystal Palace Clash
Arsenal have been dealt a blow ahead of their clash with Crystal Palace on Saturday, as midfielder Mikel Merino has been ruled out with a hamstring injury.
The Spaniard, who has been one of the Gunners' most impressive performers this season, sustained the injury in training on Thursday.
The club has confirmed that Merino will miss the trip to Selhurst Park, and he is also a doubt for the following week's Europa League clash with PSV Eindhoven.
The news is a major blow for Arsenal, who are already without a number of key players due to injury.
Thomas Partey, Emile Smith Rowe, and Mohamed Elneny are all currently sidelined, and their absence has been felt in recent weeks.
Merino's injury will further stretch Arsenal's resources, and it could force manager Mikel Arteta to field a weakened team against Crystal Palace.
